mpainter Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Applied as well. I will wait for a decision too.
Ardnas058 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 Have you submitted LB's app? waiting as well.......
lucyyy19 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Have you submitted LB's app? Currently working on it. Hoping to submit this week. U?
Ardnas058 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 I am also working on mine.. giving myself the same deadline.
MSW03 Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) I turned in my CSULB a few days ago and they told me it will take 4-6 weeks just to get a confirmation email that they received your app and that its complete, not even a decision until a few months after that hope we'll get admission decisions faster!

Ardnas058 Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 Do any of you know when UCLA will start letting us know?
nhl Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Hey all! Just wanted to (hopefully) put you at ease and let you know, I was exactly where you are last year, and I know the wait is brutal but you will hear back sooner or later! To my knowledge, the first decision letters for UCLA started coming in the first few days of March last year. I got mine around the second week of March. Some others got theirs later. There really doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to it, although I will say that I applied by the priority deadline. The school just gets a lot of applications; about 400+ for my 2015 graduating class. So hang tight and good luck!
Baffledgenius Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I just received my UCLA acceptance letter in the mail today, so hopefully you all will get one soon too
lucyyy19 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Awesome! When did u apply? And did they send u an email as well? Once again congrats!!! What is your focus? Edited February 11, 2014 by lucyyy19
Baffledgenius Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I applied around Dec 1st or 3rd, and nope no email, only a tiny little envelope in the mail. And thank you! My focus is mental health.
Ardnas058 Posted February 11, 2014 Author Posted February 11, 2014 Oh, wow! Early response... Congrats! Did u apply for a fellowship? Is UCLA your first choice?
Baffledgenius Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Thank you! And I applied for the diversity fellowship, and I have 3 top choices.... U Penn, UCLA, and Berkeley( my alma mater). So far two of the three have sent me acceptance letters. How about you? Is UCLA your top choice?
esimanon Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Looks like people are already getting admitted to the MSW program? Wowzers, that's exciting! Please complete your stats into this Google document I created for the UC LOS ANGELES MSW Fall 2014 applicants! https://docs.google....Y3c&usp=sharing
Baffledgenius Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I entered my stats into the UCLA spreadsheet for you. Honestly, I don't think knowing others stats will help you much though, just because the essay is so critical and it often reflects life experience and desire, not stats. Like in my case as you will see, my stats are average, but I was a high school drop out at the age of 15 who spent her time working and taking care of a schizoid affective bipolar mother. It took a long time and some very uncommon paths(running away to a new state, community college while working full time and supporting myself entirely as a teen) for me to get my bachelors. It's stuff like this that probably won them over. See what I mean?
esimanon Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I completely agree with you on the stats thing - I just created this spreadsheet because I was fascinated by a similar one that was created in 2012. It's exciting to get a glimpse of the people you may be working with and their unique experience/edge. Thanks for entering your data
berrysymone Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Hello everyone, I also applied to the UCLA MSW program and just received my acceptance letter as well in the mail. =)
lucyyy19 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Congrats! When did u submit ur application? I've been checking online and it just says submitted-pending decision :/
lber Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Congrats to the people who received their acceptance already! Question: does your grad application portal say you've been admitted if you sign back in? Edited February 12, 2014 by lber
berrysymone Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Congrats! When did u submit ur application? I've been checking online and it just says submitted-pending decision :/ Thank you! I submitted my application on December 15th. As I check online, it shows "Submitted", with a check mark next to it. Good Luck!
berrysymone Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Congrats to the people who received their acceptance already! Question: does your grad application portal say you've been admitted if you sign back in? It does not say "admitted" on the grad application portal, which is weird but I believe they update that about 10 business days after the acceptance letter is mailed out. My letter was dated February 5th, so I will let you know if it changes in the following days. Good luck!
Ardnas058 Posted February 14, 2014 Author Posted February 14, 2014 Thank you! And I applied for the diversity fellowship, and I have 3 top choices.... U Penn, UCLA, and Berkeley( my alma mater). So far two of the three have sent me acceptance letters. How about you? Is UCLA your top choice? I applied to UCLA & CSULB. Yes, UCLA is first choice. However, I would also be happy with CSULB.... Staying positive and hopefiul!
Elizabeth Li Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I completely agree with you on the stats thing - I just created this spreadsheet because I was fascinated by a similar one that was created in 2012.

Actually, where did you find the one for 2012? Could you please share? Thanks!! t
